Scammed by Swartz

Dont let the commercials or touted "give back to community" or Richard himself sway you. Do not use Junkin orSabrina, both are liars. All they ate interested in is getting you on hook for a contract then they ghost you. Everything done so far, not much, I could have done myself. Their inital promises... of "we can handle that" isnot true. I think they are in cohoots with insurance company. Lost my income, home an got stuck with unpaid bills thanks to them. They are a scam in an expensive suit.

Take your money and that’s all!

I can remember he handling my case when he first open for business. His entire staff then was some scammers and I’m sure they are now. I get upset about everytime I think about it! Please don’t use him!!

They do not care

My husband hired this law firm over four months ago for a job injury. No returned calls. No updates. Nothing. He is still hurt but can't even go to the doctor because the company he is suing won't approve it!! Have never heard of that before. Wish we had did more research before retaining this attorn...ey. Just very unprofessional. You call they are always out of the office. Why take a case if your not going to help? Having to go to work every day in pain. Your lawyer is suppose to fight for you not dodge you every time you turn around.

Ms

This is a lying law firm practice!Everything I have read before about them is true. You don’t receive a big settlement, and they get 40-42% of your settlement. They try to use manipulative ways in trying to make you think they’re doing the best for you. Itdoesn’t matter how many awards they have wo...n. They’re all tied in together and are CROOKS! You have to constantly call them in order to hear anything about your case. One thing though, you will never prosper being dishonest no matter how much you try to hide it! DON’T USE THIS FIRM!

USELESS law firm

Believe all the bad reviews. They are basically useless. I regret believing their fake advertisements. Go to someone else or do it yourself because they aren't going to help you. Unfortunately I hired them and I regret it. When people have posted all these reviews that this company is awful- believe... it!!

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
